Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 219

Adrian said nothing, simply picking Oliver up and heading to the hotel.

Selena remained quiet during the walk; some things were best said in moderation.

Once they reached the hotel, she finally spoke. "Adrian, let Oliver stay with me. What he needs most right now is a mother's love."

Oliver had already fallen asleep on Adrian's shoulder.

Teardrops still clung to the corners of his eyes, and he mumbled in his sleep, "Mom."

Adrian refused. "No, his temper is bad right now. He might hurt you."

Before Selena could respond, he added, "It's been a long trip. Get some rest."

Then he carried the child into his room.

Watching the door close in her face, Selena bit the inside of her cheek, her expression darkening.

Back at the seaside villa, Isabel was making Sweet and Sour Meatballs for Edmund.

He and Evelyn were gathered around her, helping out.

Julian took a call, confirming flight details for the next day.

As he was about to put his phone down, a message came in from Miles: [Buddy, I'm working my tail off preparing for your wedding with my sister, I have zero free time. You better protect her.]

Julian glanced at the photos of the wedding venue and the wedding dress that had just been flown in.

He didn't have to imagine it; she would look stunning in it.

After looking at the pictures, he slowly replied: [We're not related by blood, stop calling her your sister.]

Miles: [We're family on paper now, so she's my sister. From now on, you'd better respect me, brother-in-law.]

Julian couldn't be bothered to reply, sending back a rolling-eyes emoji.

He ignored whatever messages came after that.

Putting his phone away, he glanced toward the kitchen.

Just as he was about to head over, one of his men came to report.

"Mr. Reed, our shipment at sea..."

Julian listened and then smiled.

Everyone knew that the waters around Aurelia City were Reed territory.
